The Mysterious Black Magician Chapter 6

"Well, venerable Sir, what do you think?" He asked.
After examining and feeding the arrow with magic, the soldier nodded in agreement.
It looks like he was wrong. It certainly came from rank B+ Demon Wood.
"But kid, is it not still too expensive for an arrow? Even if this was made from rank B+, I think it is still overpriced, " the soldier said.
"Kufufu, venerable sir, what is money without life? Don't think you can redeem your life with points after you die. As long as you're alive, points or money will come back to you, as long as you work hard on it. But if it is your life that will lose, it will be lost forever," Yman said while his hands gesturing, it can't be helped.
"Well..... When you said it that way. I see no room for arguments."
Later on, the soldier had decided to buy. Until more customers were coming to buy on him, at the moment, he sold 30 sets. And now he accumulated 300 points; he grinned from ear to ear. Now he could buy a decent skill. If Yman was not mistaken, there was a cheap skill that he could buy.
The soldiers were joyful too, after all, the arrows they had bought could penetrate the resilient shells of the monsters.
His arrows were unbending because of the crazy experiment that Yman did.
There's one type of slime which is unaffected by magic. Because whenever you shoot magic on it, it's body becomes tougher and harder.
Luckily this type of slime is not hostile to humans. And they were tameable too with a Taming Skill. But most magicians choose not to tame these kinds of monsters. Because they were too weak, they had low attack.
But Yman has a crazy idea to experiment using these slimes urine. He soaked the arrows for about a week, until every fiber of its wood that was made from Demon Woods was able to absorb the liquid.

And that's the reason why his arrows that are made from low-rank Demon Woods have hardened and became unbendable after feeding with magic.
Because of the hardness, the penetration force has increased as well.
The battle was unceasing and many casualties from both sides. But unlike before, as of now, the soldier was able to hold their ground until their reinforcement arrived.
"Soldier Moore, go buy another set of arrows at the kid vendor, " the Commander ordered his soldier.
When Yman heard it, he grinned even broader. Not just he could profit with this chaos, he also was able to help in defending the town.
But too bad, he wasn't able to see what monsters were attacking outside because the civilians were not allowed to go to the wall surface. He can't even peek outside because the wall was too high. But based on what he heard from soldiers, there was a mutated rank BB+ Wolf and Shelled Ants monsters. This kind of ants was as big as a cat. They were covered by shells, and hard to deal with.
Not long after Yman emptied his stock of arrows, reinforcements from the Seeker Association arrived.
They'd be small in number with only 10 people in total, but each one of them exudes dominating aura and brimming with confidence that couldn't be lost to a platoon of soldiers.
They were wearing expensive-looking armors and robes. In hands and somewhere part of their body, fasten different types of weapons.
Everyone who saw them would know that these people were magicians of a higher caliber.
Yman's eyes were sparkling with excitement. He yearns to become the strongest Seeker in the future.
So after seeing these people, his excitement hit the peak.
Some people and even soldiers around shouted and whispered in loud voices.

"Look, that's Pyro of the Red Dragon Party right?" One of the soldiers whispered to the person beside him, in a slightly loud voice.
"Right, it's him, no doubt!" Answered by the second soldier in an excited tone.
"Woah, look at his armor... So cool!" Said by the other soldier.
The person they called Pyro was wearing a red crystal-like armor with the carvings of dragon scales.
It suits him well since Pyro has red spiky hair, deep-set eyes, and slightly muscular build. And stood in the height of 5"9.
At their arrival, the commander stuttered towards them.
"You are the reinforcement sent from Seeker Association?" The commander asked Pyro.
Even though he already knows the answer, he needed to ask anyway.
"Yes, we are from the Seekers, of the Red Dragon Party." Pyro casually replied.
After getting to know each other greetings, the commander gave a slight briefing about the situations.
After the briefing, the reinforcement from Seeker Association began their attacks on monsters. Not even an hour had passed that the fight had ended.
The people from Seeker Association shoot high-level magic on the monster's side, with an area of effect.
Their vanguards brutally hack and slash every monster that tried to attack them.
With his flaming sword, Pyro burns every monster that tries to pounce on him.
The battle became a one-sided massacre. While watching the fight, Yman's eyes were full of envy. He wanted to be someone like them. A magician that is able to kill monsters with ease.
While the magicians from Seeker Association were busy killing the monsters outside of town, the surrounding soldiers were also busy cheering at them.
Yman was able to see the battle. The dazzling magic of different colors had reflected in his eyes. He could feel his heart's loud beating noise. He was excited about the ongoing fight that was happening at his front.
After the fight, everyone was joyful. The people surrounded the magicians of the Seeker Association. They have showered them with praises.
Yman thought he could get thanks as well. Since it was thanks to his arrows, that the soldiers were able to hold their grounds, and they successfully defended the wall before the reinforcement arrived.
But they have forgotten his little help. Well, it doesn't matter for him. Compared to the safety of the town, it was a trivial matter.

A Nation of Distances (possibly a dystopian love story)
Michael lives in a toxic macho world with extreme male hierarchy. When he gets a weird rating that makes his place even more problematic he's forced to choose a fiancée at a Wife School, and he slowly discovers more about the other side of the great divide between the sexes in The Nation. If only the world would stop being so complicated... On the other side there's Megan, who's more interested in books than in marriage, and the unpredictable Eliza who seems to have a connection with Micheal already. Will they be able to cross the distance and become friends against all the rules of their own world, or will they just be crushed? Are positive relationships between men and women even possible? And is there a way to change the world or is that just a naive thought of a silly wimp? 'A Nation of Distances' is a slightly dystopian dialogue-heavy drama set in a low sci-fi future setting about the war between the sexes, disconnect and friendship. The genre will fluctuate in between more slice-of-life parts and soft sci-fi drama with possible romantic elements, with alternating lead and switching perspectives once more of the main characters are established. Content Warning: Certain concepts and scenes might be disturbing and/or triggering to some, even though the story itself won't be extremely heavy most of the time. Sexism as a double-edged sword destructive to both sexes is an important part of the story, but so is friendship.Note that all descriptions of persons and places are purely fictional and made up by the writer, and any resemblance with anything in the real world is a coincidence, since the real world is not supposed to be dystopian anyway!
